Whatever my life takes me, poetry will always be in my heart. It proceeds yourself to a completely different world and supply you an opportunity to understand about yourself. I had the opportunity to be introduced to poetry in my literary themes class and I did not understand what it was talking about. As I consistently read my assigned poetry book The Gift of Tongues, I could resemble my life in these poetries. Out of all the poetries that I read, ten of these poems stood out to me about life. Although all of these poems resembles about life, you can look at these poems as different aspects about life. The reason why I chose these poems is that they each resembles about life being a circle of obstacles that you will face. When these life obstacles

Poetry is not just words formed into a line and a stanza; each poem is an opportunity to “dance” with the poet to his or her significant song. “Introduction to Poetry” by Billy Collins is a reflection on how readers should read poetry. This poem is about how readers should take the time to understand and explore poetry.

Throughout this unit, I learned a lot about writing poetry. I learned the most about rhyme schemes and metaphors. I wrote poems that convey emotions that I'm very uncomfortable writing about.

Along with visual aspects, rhyme, and rhythm Love and a Question also has a specific form, language, and ideas. The form of the poem in relation to the rhyme scheme is a simple 4 line which is an abcb rhyme scheme repeated throughout the poem; Robert Frost does not stray away from the abcb rhyme scheme once during Love and a Question. The rhetoric in this poem expresses the speaker as a descriptive individual. The narrator describes the stranger asking for shelter “with the eyes more than the lips,” and he road this stranger travelled upon as a “weary road,” such word choice implies the narrator is a very eloquent and thoughtful (21). The narra-tor sees the need in the stranger’s eyes for shelter and notes the tiring journey this stranger has been on thus far, this rhetoric also demonstrates specific word choice of the narrator. The narra-tor chose words like “weary” to express the long and tiring journey the stranger has been on up till this point, the road he traveled to get to the bridegroom’s house was extensive and wearing (21). Another example of word choice by the narrator is the word “bore” in the statement “He bore a green-white stick in his hand,” the stranger was not just carrying this green-white

The “The Fury of Aerial Bombardment” was written by a man named Richard Eberhart. Eberhart was born in 1904 in Austin, Minnesota (“Richard Eberhart”). By the time Eberhart was a teenager his life was already full of tragedy, to make his situation even worse he went through a long period of time where he could not gain acceptance as a writer (“Richard Eberhart”).

However, One of his employees embezzled a fortune from the company which caused his stocks to fall and damaged the family’s assets (“Richard Eberhart

I chose to compare two poems that we did not have a chance to discuss in class; “Musee des Beaux Arts,” by W.H. Auden and “Theology,” by Ted Hughes. Both of these works are deeply profound poems about the complexity and collective connection of life. They question what the modernized, ego fueled, life experiences truly is and draw focus to the disconnections we suffer through the artificial society built around us. What Hughes managed to create with “Theology,” is absolutely astounding! In three short stanzas, he encompasses the problem with the modern worldly perspectives that we are spoon fed through our most powerful institutions. Auden was inspired by Pieter Brueghel’s paintings when he wrote “Musee des Beaux Arts,” which elaborates on

These days, many songs repeat the same sounds again and again. Also, singers and songwriters say it is really important to create songs that are catchy and that everyone can sing along to easily. Most songs that are popular worldwide are easy to remember because they constantly repeat the same sounds. The repeating sound is referred to as ‘rhyme’, and according to Cambridge dictionary it means two or more words with the same final sound, or the use of such words, especially at the end of lines in a poem or song. The Billboard charts show weekly population of songs or albums in the United States. If a song were placed in high rank on this chart, it would mean the song is popular in world not only in the United States but worldwide. After learning this, I checked some of the song lyrics that had high ranks, and I noticed the songs have a lot of rhymes. Moreover, Songs are not the only type of media that uses words that rhyme. As Paul Muldoon said fifty percent of television ads use rhymes. The rhyme is around us at all times. People just do not realize because rhyme comes naturally to everyone. I actually thought the word ‘Rhyme scheme’ was created in the twenty-first century. However, I realized that is not true after I learned about the sonnet in class. Usually, sonnets use rhymes a lot. There are two major rhyme schemes on sonnet: Petrarchan (or Italian) sonnet and Shakespearean (or English) Sonnet. Both

As I would see it poetry, is the most ideal approach to impart your emotions, and feelings. The word poetry itself speaks to how the creator is feeling or what he needs to transmit trough words. With poetry one can impart feelings as well as reflections and it can be communicated by Human excellence, satisfaction, and misery. It will rely upon the objective of each creator.

Further, my classmate Naufal Idrissi, gave his speech about what he thinks what is poetry, and the first thing he said was “I do not understand poetry” but, he related poetry with emotions and sports, which make a lot of sense because any athlete who is passionate about what he plays, can have moments of happiness or sadness. And, he also makes a good comparison between poetry and music which I believe is very similar, depending on the lyrics and music genre.
